To Hell With Being A Saint, I’m A Doctor - Chapter 272

Episode 272 Celestia’s Courtship (3)

“Come to think of it, I haven’t spoken out loud yet. I am Moros Merhen of the Marquis of Merhen.”

“It’s Ray. The castle disappeared for some reason.”

Are you a ruined aristocrat?

I don’t know the situation, but rather it went well.

If a person like this could be completely embraced as the Marquis of Marchen, it was as if he didn’t need a background.

“My grandfather just asked me to have dinner with him. Would you like to go with me?”

If Moros liked others, he spilled a bait that would make them not know what to do.

“Princess Celestia is coming too.”

The main purpose was to establish a blood relationship with his family, but he thought it would be okay to use the princess a little in the process.

It was a little different from what I thought, but it worked for Ray.

‘I’ll have to stay with you for a month anyway, so I’d better show up now.’

For three days, he cheated and avoided her.

But you can’t just avoid it all the time.

If you can’t fill the month properly, it’s because the situation will be more troublesome.

At this point, it is best to meet once in a while.

Having made up her mind, Ray nodded.

“great.”

* * *

Marquis Merchen gave up on meeting Ray after all, no matter how long he waited.

Of course, he visited Viscount Gade because he needed to find the culprit who tried to poison the princess or investigate the case in detail.

Since there was something to be done first, the Marquis chose to return.

‘Anyway, if you stay inside this mansion, you’ll meet. I’ll nag you then.’

A knight approached Marquis Merchen, who was sitting in his office and making plans for the future.

“I will report regularly, Marquis.”

“Is it that time already? tell me.”

“yes. Still no suspicious person was seen in the mansion. Perhaps Princess Celestia was sexually assaulted by one of the nobles during the banquet.”

At the words of the knight, Marquis Marchen’s expression darkened for an instant.

If this was simply what an assassin did or what an attendant did, the weight of the incident would be lightened.

However, if there is evidence that the aristocrats intervened, the story will change.

If the crime of insulting the royal family and killing the royal family is added to the crime of rebellion, it won’t end at the level of beating three generations.

Then, a more extensive investigation will be conducted than now.

The knight who was standing in the city continued to speak shyly.

“For that reason, the witnesses are also looking for them, but I don’t think they will be as easy to find as the Marquis expected.”

“It is unavoidable. If he had intended to poison him, he would have acted extremely secretly.”

“Shall we speed up the investigation a bit?”

At the knight’s question, the Marquis of Marchen shook his head.

“We can’t just speed up and make the other nobles leave.”

“yes.”

“Expand the scope of the investigation. It would be better to ask as many people as possible.”

“All right.”

As the knight left the office with a slight bow of his head, Marquis Merchen let out a sigh.

A little over three days had passed since I came to Viscount Gade’s house.

Even so, I still can’t catch a single clue, so I only sigh in frustration.

‘That’s strange. There’s nothing to catch as if someone covered it up.’

I don’t know what it is, but it seems that there is a helper attached to the person who executed the poisoning.

If someone gets caught, I won’t leave it alone.

Marquis Marchen’s eyes burned quietly.

* * *

Celestia is currently in a state of distress.

At the same time, her lady-in-waiting was also upset.

“How can a man not respond for more than five days?”

“That’s why I didn’t want to meet you.”

“A man cannot hate the princess. If I were a man, would I have fallen in love right now?”

The lady-in-waiting made an unfamiliar noise.

Princess Celestia, who had been mistreated for three or more days, regained her confidence, albeit a little.

“Is it really so?”

“Nothing! Princess, just trust me!”

Did you say failure is the mother of success?

The culprit, who had only failed so far, pounded his chest and confidently told him to believe in himself.

The princess, who had been fooled more than five times, was fooled again.

“okay. You must have more experience than me.”

The lady-in-waiting, who lived as a maid in the royal castle and had never experienced romance at all, nodded.

“The princess is too timid. I’ve only shown my weak side so far, so it’s time to show a little stronger side.”

“A strong figure?”

“Even if you talk to them, they don’t answer on purpose or show a sullen look. If you do that, the other person will be embarrassed and start talking to the princess even more.”

I hear it’s pretty plausible.

The princess, who acquired love knowledge through books, touched her hands.

“I think it’s a good plan.”

“Yes? I heard that a lady-in-waiting I know is dating a nearby soldier like this.”

When there were even success stories, the reliability broke through 120% at once.

The princess, completely taken aback by the lady-in-waiting’s words, clenched her fists.

‘How can you ignore me like this until now? Now it’s my turn. I’ll ignore it.’

The dream was also wild.

* * *

As the son-in-law got dark, Ray followed Moros into the building.

After passing the place guarded by the solemn knights, Viscount Gade, Celestia of Illisia, and Marquis of Merhen caught my eye.

Moros approached them and greeted them.

“Something happened, so I’m a little late.”

“Okay. Have a seat.”

“yes.”

After finding a seat at the invitation of the Marquis, the Marquis of Marchen asks with a puzzled expression.

“But who is the guy next to you?”

“We met a little while ago at the gymnasium.”

“Hoo. If it’s to the extent that you brought him, he won’t be an ordinary person.”

“yes. I’m sorry, but I couldn’t defeat him with my sword.”

Only the Marquis of Merchen was greatly surprised by Moros’ words.

“You mean you lost?”

Who is your grandson!

Moros is the heir to the Marquis Marchen family, who is called the sword of the kingdom, and at the same time looking to the upper level of the Aura user.

I couldn’t help but be surprised to see such a grandson smile and admit defeat.

Except for Marquis Hana Marchen, everyone reacted as expected.

No matter how much he wore a mask, the fact that he was a saint was a fact known to everyone except for the Marquis and Moros.

It was a boringly obvious story that he defeated Moros after defeating the necromancer single-handedly and playing football with the dragon’s neck.

Marquis Marchen looked at Ray as if he was surprised.

“I didn’t know there was such a hidden talent. Besides, if it’s enough to defeat Moros, it means you’re looking at the Sword Master now, right? Excluding the case of Seongguk, it can be said that he is actually the youngest.”

Are you talking about zig?

Perhaps if he had heard this, he would have been restless, not knowing what to do with his apologies.

Ray thought of Zeke for the first time in a while and smiled.

Interpreting that as a token of gratitude for the compliment, Marquis Marquis looked at Ray and her eyes lit up.

‘It’s not like Moros brought him here for nothing. Certainly, there would be nothing wrong with having a good relationship with the future sword master.’

The grandson who arranged this meeting was proud.

Ray took a seat next to Celestia.

Then she shakes her head.

“joy.”

When she let out a snort and pretended to be sullen, Ray stared blankly at her.

Celestia was overjoyed.

‘You’re really reacting.’

The maid was right.

After all, dating experience can’t beat attendants.

There is no tweezers very much.

When he showed interest, the excited Celestia took another drink.

Dropping the utensils from him, he showed a sense of distance.

It is an act that seems unnatural even at first glance.

Celestia rolled her eyes and looked at him.

But what

Isn’t he also keeping tableware away from himself!

When the desired reaction did not return, Celestia, feeling uneasy, returned the tableware to its original position.

However, he only moved away little by little.

Ray’s color turned bright as she fell off on her own.

Thanks to this, I was able to enjoy my meal in silence.

They said they had to stick around for a month, but it wasn’t what they wanted.

However, if he showed a sense of distance even in this way, he would be grateful.

The mysterious battle of nerves (?) between the two was cut off by Marquis Merchen.

He had a lot of questions from before.

The young man in front of me looks familiar, and it is the same appearance that I encountered somewhere.

I’m not sure because I’m wearing a mask.

Marquis Marquis asked in a hint.

“But why are you wearing a mask? You don’t need to hide your face in a place like this.”

“It is a personal matter.”

When he spoke softly about his intention not to talk about it, the Marquis thought on his own.

‘Are there scars on your face? Since he’s an excellent swordsman, he may have had an accident while gaining experience in combat.’

But that doesn’t mean I’m completely suspicious.

There is also the poisoning of the princess and the young man who made a promise to her.

And for some reason, the young man in front of me seemed to be related to those two things.

It was necessary to keep an eye on it.

The meal did not flow in a very friendly atmosphere.

Celestia was restless by herself, and Illisia looked at the two with strange eyes.

Viscount Gade was unable to say anything because he was oppressed by Marquis Marchen, and the Marquis seems preoccupied with organizing his thoughts.

Since everyone is jumbled up, it’s impossible to have a proper conversation.

When the situation came to this, Moros said quietly with an apologetic expression.

“…I’m sorry. I don’t usually do this, but it seems like everyone has a lot to think about today.”

“You don’t have to worry about it.”

It doesn’t matter if you don’t really care.

Or rather, Ray was comfortable with a situation like this.

However, in the eyes of Moros, he was considered to be considerate of himself.

Even though he was invited to a meal and sat on a cushion of thorns like this, Moros was moved by his own will when he thought of himself.

“I’ll personally treat you to a meal later. I want you to come at that time as well.”

It’s not Ray who refuses delicious free food.

Moreover, for a month, the purpose was to make Celestia suffer so that she would fall out of her own way.

Did you say that when the body is far away, the mind is also far away?

If she continues to keep her distance like now, she will give up marriage talks on her own.

He nodded willingly.
